There are many approaches to smoking cessation, but the one I use, after specialist training, fits with who I am and what I understand about addiction, psychology and the human brain. It is based on clinical evidence gained from more than 20 years of working with smokers. That’s important to me and it may be to you too? It is a gentle approach that will move you from a place of dependency to a place where it just feels more natural and right not to smoke than it does to continue.So how do I address this addiction?
  • I won’t badger you into giving up; after all, no-one else has been successful in that, and I can’t imagine for a minute that I would be any different.
  • I won’t insist that we follow a rigid format.
  • I won’t hurry you along nor slow you down.
  • I won’t devise a treatment plan without considering the context of your current lifestyle.
  • I will tailor the session around your individual needs.
  • I will be responsive to what crops up in the session.
  • I will use a range of different techniques drawn from the fields of hypnosis, NLP, neuroscience and psychology as best fit the need.
  • I will make myself available for telephone support in between sessions.
  • I will tell you in the pre-consultation if I think you’re not yet ready.
Helping you achieve freedom from cigarettes permanently is important for me, not because I think it’s bad, but because it’s what you want. My sole concern is that you might live the kind of life you want to live, free from the habits and behaviours which hold you back.We all deserve to live the best lives we possibly can. My happiness comes from your success. Instead of the lure of snapping open a packet, you will be able to pack it in.If you want to work with someone who understands the nature of physical and psychological addiction, who adopts a broad-based and flexible approach drawing on diverse therapeutic interventions, and who has the skill to create a ‘pick and mix’ menu of treatment which is just right for you, then please book an appointment now for a pre-consultation.Smoking is the major preventable cause of death in the UK today and a relatively costly way to go too. The price of tobacco increased by 87% over the ten years from 2004 to 2014 and the cost of living has made the habit even more unaffordable.A 50 year study shows that half to two thirds of all lifelong cigarette smokers will be eventually killed by their habit, normally due to lung cancer, chronic obstructive lung disease or coronary heart disease. Death is usually preceded by several years’ ill health and, not infrequently, early retirement due to chronic disease. You do not have to be one of these statistics. If you want to quit your habit and regain the benefits of health, the Smoking Cessation programme offered by Sharp Minds Hypnotherapy is usually offered as a two session programme, with a free follow-up if required within the first twelve months. It costs £325 which is equivalent to what someone who smokes twenty a day would spend in just 39 days!The Smoking Cessation programme also comes with personalised audio recordings. A free pre-appointment consultation (telephone or, ideally, face-to-face) is required prior to booking. Sessions are around one and a half hours.A smoker who smokes twenty cigarettes a day spends around £3,000 per year.
